but seriously.... I was listening to a talk show on the radio a few weeks ago. They were talking about the switch from the winter blend to the summer blend. They said to expect gas prices to go up about .20, so I wasn't too shocked when I saw it at the pump.

according to 60 minutes last night. seems like the gov't is run by the lobbyist. they are paid so much money just to get politicans to vote in favor of the big companies.
Notice how if the politicans dont want a bill to pass they just add something to it completely unrelated so it doesn't pass. what does dc's right to vote in congress have to do with repealing the handgun laws in dc? Thats bovine feces

What's your point?
Or how if they want something, they'll stick it an unrelated bill that's sure to pass?

You're not going to get any sympathy from this crew.
Everyone here is super-cool with the idea of these companies posting unbelievably record setting profits and swimming around in olympic-sized pools filled with cash, even if we're paying back-breaking prices at the pumps.
Don't like it - don't use any oil-based products.
After all, people survived for millions of years without it.

Did you know the government makes more on a gallon of gas than Exxon does? How do you feel about that? Exxon did all the work and all the government did was put a tax on it.

Same concept will soon apply to houses. Take the current electric bills as an example. We are paying about 20% more today per kilowatt than we were a year ago. If memory serves me correctly, there is supposed to be anothe 20% increase again within the year followed by a 10% increase the year after that. It will take practically another mortgage (in money speak) to keep a large house lighted and comfy.flomaster said:

I bought stock in a power company about two years ago. I figure maybe I can make some money out of the rising prices. I bought it at 75$ a share, and now it almost $90 a share. I don't think it'll help me break even on my electric bill though.MMDad said:
